Oh boy, today is Inspiration Challenge day here at SCS. If you love black as much as I do, you'll enjoy the site Audrie brought us today: Black and White.
Ooops, I didn't earn any bonus points today because I found myself a wonderful a stylish black and white photo with just a hint of gold. My search was over when I found this one here: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/317433473717500741/
Wonderful challenge site, Audrie. I adore black and white. I adore black and gold too, so I slipped a little gold in there for good luck.
Have a great afternoon, ladies.
B back later to comment.

You are on one, great, creative roll there, Anne! That image is so perfect for your clean, black and white stitched frame! The embossed (?) black is so perfect for this, adding dimension and interest!

Love all the texture in this card - specially the embossed dark background which really shows off the white layered image. Great little touch of gold in the embellishment and the little stripe across the centre.

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

Another stunning card from you Anne! I love that black leather paper and your various stitched rectangles, the horizontal line of gold and your image is beautifully colored. Did you do that with Prismacolor pencils? Gorgeous card!
I've never been to Vic's (or heard about it until your comment). Leatherby's is the place we are familiar with and now Farrell's is back in town too.

LOVE that black textured panel, wow, that is cool! Beautiful image! Love the guy...I have several guys but have barely ever used them! This would have been a good place for them.
Love the added gold and the gold embellie!
Beautiful card!

Anne,
Oh this is wonderful with that beautifully embossed bg and gorgeously colored image! I agree, gold and black, such an elegant combination and so beautifully displayed here!
